In a spot of the market as far as possible from the new tree, and yet still clearly part of the festivities waits a travel weary looking buck. If one didn't know better it would be easy to mistake him as part of the wood surrounding his booth, but he's moving around and clearly a living creature. He is humming unmusically and occasionally clicking his tongue against his teeth in frustration and worry.
To the right of him there is a large circle tamped into the ground. At the center of which is a very, very, very large rock.
Placed all around the circle are glowing mushrooms in pinks and blues.
To the left on fallen, split, logs and massive stumps(that must have taken a very long time to move) a massive feast has been laid out. There's groupings of various late summer and early fall berries, the freshest edible mushrooms, meats, different types of fish and shellfish, leafy greens, smashed tubers in a rainbow of colors ... if you can imagine it then it's probably there.
There are large shells and hollowed stones filled with a matching myriad of drinks as well.
It's clear that he's put a lot of work into this.
"Hello," Story greets you, speaking very slowly, "this is my favorite time of the year. The smell of evergreens are stronger than ever, everyone gathers together for light and warmth, the food tastes extra delicious, and finding a comfortable place to sleep feels extra luxurious in the cold. Not that I'm one for luxury mind you..."
He sheepishly looks over at the ridiculous spread of food and drink.
"Although, I think there's something to be said about the occasional indulgence."
He laughs and it's instantly easy to forget he was grumbling and clearly irritated when you first arrived.
"All of that to say, friend- Join me for food, drink, and some good natured competition! Be wary, though, I've noticed some of the food is already being nibbled on. So, please do watch for little friends underfoot."

Rules & How to Play.
1. This was inspired by a tale Story told about his mouse familiar recruiting wild mice to wage war against his marshfowl pets(they are menaces and the mice and Story had had enough.) It's not required reading to participate, but you can find that here.
2. There are two factions: The Mice and The Marshfowl. This has no immediate bearing on the game; it's just a bit of fun RP fodder for now.
3. RP is highly encouraged, but not required. If you would like to RP with Story please quote me.
4. You get three rounds a week - Meaning that you can roll three times in one week. However you want to do that is up to you. Please, do not roll 12 d6 at once.
5. Post each round in a new post. This should mean three separate posts in which you roll.
6. Two prizes will be raffled off each week. Reset will happen every Friday at Midnight PST - Starting on Friday Dec 8th.
7. You can only win one edited familiar, your choice of mouse warrior or peacefowl, with other prizes to appear at the end of the market.
8. Both familiar edits will be open after Winter Market.
1. Use the form below for each round/post.
2. Please use the same kin for all three rounds.
- If you don't have any kin making one up for the purpose of this game is fine.
2. In each post roll 4d6.
3. The total of all four dice is how many steps up the mountain your kin has made per round.
4. If you roll all 1s - Your kin moved 0 steps and loses that round.
5. If you roll all 6s - Your kin moved 30 steps that round.
- Not the 24 it would be if you added up the roll normally.
6. At the end of your three rounds add up the total number of steps from each roll.
7. The total number of steps your kin moved determines how many tickets you get.
5 - 30 = 1 ticket
31 - 60 = 2 tickets
61+ = 3 tickets
8. Getting 85 - 90 steps means your kin made it to the top of the mountain and has claimed it in the name of their chosen faction. You get 1 bonus ticket and your kin gets a cool themed accessory.
- Edit your final roll and use the second code below to claim your extra ticket and accessory!

Play Example.
Story is playing for the Mouse faction!
Story rolls 4d6 and gets 5, 3, 5, 5
He climbs a total of 18 steps.
In his next post he rolls 4d6 again and gets 6, 6, 6, 6 - Lucky!!
Because he rolled all 6s Story gets a lucky boost and climbs 30 steps this round.
Story rolls a third, and final time, and gets 1, 6, 1, 6
He climbs a total of 14 steps for his last move.
His numbers for the week are 18 + 30 + 14. For a total 62 steps towards the top of the hill before falling off.
He gets 3 tickets.
Craneflower is playing for the Marshfowl faction!
Craneflower rolls 4d6 and gets 3, 4, 3, 5
She climbs a total of 15 steps her first round.
For her second round Craneflower rolls 4d6 and gets 4, 3, 1, 4
She climbs a total of 12 steps.
She rolls 4d6 and gets 1, 1, 1, 1 - Bad luck!!
Because she rolled all 1s she climbs 0 steps. She doesn't move at all.
Craneflower's numbers for the week are 15 + 12 + 0. For a total of 27 steps up the mountain before falling.
She gets 1 ticket.

FOOD!! FIGHT!!!
As everyone gathered to eat and spend time together just enjoying the warmth and glow of each other's company no one noticed a darkness descend on them. One by one each member of the makeshift group noticed things were ... different. The food was larger, for one, and body parts were new but known. Prehensile tails, feathers, large ears, and clawed feet were the new normal. As intuitive as breathing, but they knew that they'd all just been kin.
Everyone, everyone but Story, had been turned into either a mouse or a marshfowl.
With the change came a strong change in emotion- The mice were angry. Extremely angry. So angry their tiny little frames could hardly contain it. And the marshfowl? They just wanted to pick fights and eat everything they could find. They were become chaos incarnate.
No one saw who threw the first berry, but a loud angry SQUEAK accompanied it and Story let out a devastated moan.
"Not again."
Kin, actual kin, that no one can recall seeing before have entered the fray and are gleefully enabling both sides. It's your job to impress them with your food flinging abilities and maybe convince them to help put a stop to everything.
That's right! For the last leg of Story's pleasant escape from AU shenanigans he and everyone else have found themselves smack dab in the middle of AU food fight shenanigans!
The mice and marshfowl are at it again with another food fight at Story's expense and your kin are taking place- As mice and wild chicken.
Because this takes place in a Swamp appropriate way, meaning this is all something your kin would be familiar with, they will remember this when all is said and done if you so choose.
How to play:
1. Choose a side-You can finish 3 separate RPs/solos for the rest of the event!
If you played previously stick to the same faction! (This means your kin is now either a mouse or a marshfowl depending on what you chose.)
If you're just joining the party you can choose either side!
2. Each side has advantages and disadvantages-
Mice are harder to hit due to their size so their HP reflects that by being higher. However, they don't throw as hard.
Marshfowl are much easier to hit and their HP reflects that by being lower, but they hit harder(see below.)
3. In a separate post in the Roleplaying forum here make a new thread-
You can fight 1v1 or solo against Story(he won't fight back. See his stats below.)
Title your thread with 1v1/Solo FOOD FIGHT!! (Your kin's names here)
(You can spend some time roleplaying before you actually begin the fight.)
4. To start your food fight each player rolls 1d20 to decide starting order.
Keep track of your HP in each post.
5. Battle back and forth using the appropriate Atk dice. The food fight is over once someone hits 0 HP!
6. Come back here, fill out the form below, and link to your RP.
- 250 words per person = 1 ticket.
- 500 words per person = 2 tickets and, of course, can be used towards Legendary reqs.
You can both claim tickets using the same RP, but please keep track of your own word count!
Stats:
Mice -
HP: 70
Atk die: 1d8
Marshfowl -
HP: 50
Atk die: 1d10
Story -
HP: 80
Code: Select all
